Brooks, who already has 22 ACM Awards at home, was honored with one of the 50th Anniversary Milestone Awards -- but even before he accepted the honor, he thought he had "already won."

"Look who I get to come with and look who I get to go home with," the 53-year-old country crooner said of his wife.

Echoing that sentiment, Yearwood -- who joked that she was her husband's "arm candy" for the night -- added, "We are really happy. We're here to have a good time, hold hands and it's fun to get dressed up."
